First Draft of the New Introduction (who, for whom, what, for what reason)

  • Contributors: mhanski, c_schaefer
  • Status: done
  • Comment: Once we decide, which sample file to use, we can add a nice screen shot of its front page within Scribus

Updating of text content to 1.3.*

  • Contributors: Gpittman
  • Status: mostly complete, but won't promise I won't tweak it (GP)
  • Comment: Greg has already started to update things so I'm adding him as a contributor. It doesn't exclude other potential contributors, this task is too huge for one person, I guess --Mhanski 08:11, 27 July 2006 (CEST)

Creation of an entirely new sample magazine (Rembrandt)

  • Contributors: C_Schaefer
  • Status: in progress
  • Comment: Front and back cover are almost finished. Lots of things to learn already by re-creating the two pages :) I will now continue with the inside of the cover pages and then create another 4 pages of content. In the end, our Rembrandt mini magazine will have 8 pages/4 resp. 2 sheet. After following all or most of the steps to be described, an average talented user should be able to make prolific use of Scribus.

Creation of an entirely new sample magazine (about Scribus community)

    • I've some pictures of the scribus crew in Lyon: you can use them for the tutorial if you whish (a.l.e).

Creation of an entirely new sample magazine (about using Scribus)

  • Comment:
    • Since Scribus is not the best tool (in its actual state not even a good tool) to create a tutorial, i don't think it's a good idea to base a tutorial on writing a tutorial. Andreas' idea about a leaflet or a flyer (marketing) is imho better (a.l.e).

Polish version

  • Contributors: See Pierwsze_kroki_ze_Scribusem:Autorzy
  • Status: done
  • Comment: the Polish version focuses on the unstable version of Scribus and differs – intentionally, btw – from the English version

German version

Brazilian version

  • Contributors: See Ludi Maciel
  • Status: Entendendo o Scribus in progress...
  • Comment: I also have decided to focus on 1.3.3.X/1.3.X (it really makes more sense now, indeed)... Gostaria da ajuda dos lusos-brasiliros se possível, afinal, tempo é escasso.
